Size 6 is “fat?”
I saw this post on Facebook today. I have two thoughts on this post. First, good for H&M for using normal size mannequins in the store and or advertising. It’s about time someplace not The Dress Barn is using a more accurate body shape to advertise it’s clothes. It’s about time. More than 50% of …
